Enriched with fluoride: To expand on the available tools to interrogate proteases, we explored sulfonyl fluorides as activity-based probes. An alkyne-tagged fluoride covalently modifies members of S1 family serine proteases. By applying click chemistry, avidin enrichment and mass spectrometry, can enrich identify active endogenous proteases from a complex proteome.
Abstract Background Textbook outcomes are composite outcome measures that reflect the ideal overall experience for patients. There many of these in elective surgery literature but no textbook have been proposed patients following emergency laparotomy. The aim was to achieve international consensus amongst experts and best Outcomes non-trauma trauma Methods A modified Delphi exercise undertaken with three planned rounds regarding based on category, number importance (Likert scale 1–5)...
Introduction The utility of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for high-grade traumatic injuries remains unclear and data surrounding its use are limited. We hypothesized that PD does not result in improved outcomes when compared with non-PD surgical management grade IV–V pancreaticoduodenal injuries. Methods This is a retrospective, multicenter analysis from 35 level 1 trauma centers January 2010 to December 2020. Included patients were ≥15 years age the American Association Surgery Trauma...
A major challenge in communicating health-related information is the involvement of multiple complex systems from creation to sources and channels dispersion users themselves. To date, public health communications approaches have often not adequately accounted for complexities these degree necessary maximum impact. The virality COVID-19 misinformation disinformation has brought light need consider system more extensively. Unaided, it difficult humans see fully understand systems. Luckily,...
Geriatric patients who fall are among the most common mechanisms of injury presenting to trauma centers. We sought quantify impact various comorbidities on length stay (LOS) in these identify areas for intervention. A level 1 center's registry was queried ≥65 years old with related injuries admitted LOS greater than 2 days. Over 7 years, 3714 were included. Mean age 80.9 ± 8.7 years. All fell from heights 6 feet or less. Median total 5 days, interquartile range [3,8]. Overall mortality rate...
Background Following the integration of electronic health record (EHR) into healthcare system, concern has grown regarding EHR use on physician well-being. For surgical residents, time spent increases burden a demanding, hourly restricted schedule and detracts from honing skills. To better characterize these burdens, we sought to describe utilization patterns for plastic surgery residents. Methods Integrated resident March 2019 2020 was extracted via Cerner Analytics at tertiary academic...
Problem Demands placed on resident physicians can make it difficult to keep up with personal needs, often affecting well-being. For military pilots, confidential and nonpunitive human factors boards (HFBs) identify pilots’ (personal or professional problems that might interfere the ability perform effectively) recommendations for support. The authors sought determine feasibility of establishing an HFB its utility general surgery residents. Approach Publicly available information HFBs was...
Literature characterizing pediatric perineal trauma is sparse and generally limited to females. The purpose of this study was characterize injuries with specific focus on patient demographics, mechanisms injury, care patterns at a regional level 1 center.Retrospective review children aged younger than 18 years evaluated center from 2006 2017. Patients were identified by International Classification Diseases-9 10 codes. Extracted data included injury mechanism, diagnostic studies, hospital...
